The 2024 WWE King & Queen of the Ring event will witness the next title defense for the Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes and his challenger will be the reigning United States Champion Logan Paul.
On this week's SmackDown, the status of this Champion vs. Champion match set for the Saudi Arabia show was clarified as both Rhodes and Paul were present in the same ring to sign the contract and thereby make the match, official.

There was an angle in this segment where Paul made sure by rewriting the contract that his US title would not be on the line. His legal team emphasized the clause that only the undisputed WWE Title would be defended in this match.
Confusion was there around this match since the beginning of the announcement whether both the belts would be on the line or not. Rhodes wanted this to be a champion vs. champion bout for both the belts but that won't be the case.
In more news around WWE King & Queen of the Ring, the much-anticipated return of Uncle Howdy (played by Bray Wyatt's brother Bo Dallas) could happen at the PLE after an intriguing direction was shown involving glitching QR codes.
During this week's SmackDown broadcast, a new QR code appeared during the tag team match between #DIY (Johnny Gargano & Tommaso Ciampa) and Legado Del Fantasma (Angel & Berto). Scanning through the code, some repeated voiceovers and numerous glitches could be found.
A hidden detail was discovered in the URL of the webpage opened by the QR code as the number '22423' was shown which is a postal code in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, the hosting city of the King and Queen of the Ring.
That being said, the assumption is that Uncle Howdy's return on WWE TV will take place in Saudi Arabia. Alongside him, the likes of Rowan and Alexa Bliss are also expected as these two were also long associated with the late Bray Wyatt.
The 2024 WWE King & Queen of the Ring 2024 premium live event is scheduled from the Jeddah Superdome in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia on Saturday, May 25. The confirmed match card for the PLE following this week's SmackDown is given below:
